The Best (And Worst) Couples On ‘Gilmore Girls’ Ranked

dean gilmore girlsdean gilmore girls

Ask any Gilmore Girls fan who their ultimate pairing in the show is and I guarantee you’ll hear a different answer every time. If they say Sookie and Jackson, then they’re an intellectual. But if they say Rory and Dean, then, I’m sorry, they are a walking red flag. (Hey, I don’t make the rules.) So, I’ve taken the liberty of ranking the chemistry in every Gilmore Girls couple from worst to best because, why not? Keep reading to see who secured the number one spot.

Coming in last place is…

17. Lindsay and Dean

Warner Bros. Television

Are we really surprised? Not only did they get married wayyyy too young (impulsive weddings are never a good idea, people!), but Dean cheats on Lindsay with Rory. I know, I know, Dean and Rory were each other’s first love. But that doesn’t give him a pass, by any means. #JusticeforLindsay.

16. Lorelai and Max

Warner Bros. Television

Who can forget a proposal with a thousand yellow daisies? I sure can’t. But no matter how hard they tried to make their relationship work, Lorelai and Max weren’t meant to be together. Sure, they had somewhat decent chemistry. But when it comes to them being lifelong soulmates? In the words of former American Idol judge Randy Jackson: “It’s a no for me, dawg.” And if we’re being honest, Max just wasn’t the one. Aside from their relationship making Rory uncomfortable because Max was her English teacher, Lorelai runs away after she’s supposed to marry him. So yeah, they weren’t a good fit.

15. Lane and Zack

Neil Jacobs/Netflix

Yes, Zack was just a replacement for Dave. But we can all agree that Lane deserved better than Zack, right?! Throughout their relationship, you can tell Lane missed Dave and just needed a rebound—and Zack was there to fill that void. (Sorry not sorry.) And, if you ask me, they just weren’t compatible.

14. Lorelai and Christopher

Warner Bros. Television

For one, their will they/won’t they dynamic got on my nerves. I get it, they were each other’s first love. But for this back-and-forth to go on for over a decade?! Yeah, no thank you. And for Lorelai and Christopher to run off and get married without telling Rory?! Unbelievable.

13. Rory and Logan

Saeed Adyani/Netflix

Okay, I will say this: Rory and Logan did bring out the best in each other. (And their lavish romantic getaways would always make me love them more.) But at the end of the day, Logan was just a spoiled rich kid who was used to getting whatever he wanted. And I still can’t get over the fact that they cheated with each other in the revival. Just ewwww.

12. Lorelai and Jason

Warner Bros. Television

Note to self: Never date your dad’s business partner—especially if they have the desire to sue your dad in the future. And I can’t be the only one who remembers how Digger tried to break up Lorelai and Luke, right?! And if you asked me, they weren’t the strongest pairing.

11. Kirk and Lulu

Warner Bros. Television

You know what they say: The couple that play fights night terrors together, stay together.

10. Luke and Nicole

Warner Bros. Television

Honestly, their relationship was doomed from the beginning. For context, Luke started dating Nicole after Jess made fun of him for being in love with Lorelai. Then, Luke went on a cruise ship, fell head over heels for Nicole and married her while he was inebriated. It’s beyond messy and I am so here for it.

9. Paris and Doyle

Warner Bros. Television

They were just the cutest couple! And it’s no secret that they put the “soul” in soulmates.

8. Babette and Moury

Warner Bros. Television

Let’s hear it for the unsung heroes of Stars Hollow! Their dynamic was everything and I wish we got a chance to see more of their relationship on-screen. Bummer :(

7. Rory and Dean

Warner Bros. Television

Hear me out: They were cute in the beginning. Much like Lorelai and Christopher, Dean was Rory’s first love. (I mean, he built her a car after they broke up! If that’s not adorable, then I don’t know what is.) And I can’t say they weren’t cute together. Still, he cheated on his wife with Rory when they reunited years later. And we don’t condone cheating in this household.

6. Lorelai and Alex

Warner Bros. Television

I don’t hear enough people talk about Lorelai and Alex. And if you ask me, that’s a crime. Even though they were only an item for a short period, they gave what needed to be given whenever they were together on-screen. Talk about chemistry!

5. Lane and Dave

Warner Bros. Television

Love them or hate them, Lane and Dave truly were truly PERFECT for each other. Remember when Dave stayed up all night to read and understand the Bible because Lane came from a very religious household? He is the true definition of “if he wanted to, he would.”

4. Rory and Jess

Warner Bros. Television

IMO, Rory and Jess were endgame! Yes, Jess was a hot bad-boy. But he was more than that. Jess truly challenged Rory and he believed that her future held so much promise and potential. So, I can see why he would be mad to discover that she dropped out of Yale, became a member of the DAR, and lived in her grandparent’s house. (IYKYK.) Honestly, I believe Rory and Jess could’ve made their relationship work if they met later in life. I can dream, right?

3. Sookie and Jackson

Warner Bros. Television

You won’t find anyone more obsessed with produce than these two. There's something so tender and sweet about their relationship. They are just so cute. I can’t get enough of them!

2. Emily and Richard

Warner Bros. Television

TRUE COUPLE GOALS. Sure, they have their ups and downs, but in the end, they always find their way back to each other. And I still get sad thinking about the A Year in the Life episode that centered around Richard’s death. (BRB, crying — he promised she could go first!!!!)

1. Lorelai and Luke

Warner Bros. Television

What can I say? Lorelai and Luke were made for each other. They truly have something special. From throwing a surprise going-away party for Rory to building an ice-rink for Lorelai, Luke has never shied away from showing how much he cares for Lorelai and her daughter. (Help, I’m swooning!) And don’t even get me started on Lorelai and Luke having the most beautiful wedding ceremony ever in the Netflix revival! They were made for each other. I rest my case!

Sullivan's Crossing season 3 will be here before you know it — quite literally because the new episodes are premiering earlier than ever. And honestly, thank goodness after that insane season 2 finale!! Well, after a tease that the new Sullivan's Crossing episodes will be super "emotionally charged," we finally have a first look at Chad Michael Murray, Scott Patterson, and Morgan Kohan in season 3. Let's unpack it!

Here's your first look at Sullivan's Crossing season 3, premiering on The CW on May 7, 2025.

When is Sullivan's Crossing season 3 coming out?

Michael Tompkins/Fremantle

The CW confirmed that Sullivan's Crossing season 3 will premiere in the US on May 7, 2025 at 8PM EST. My jaw dropped because we usually get October premieres, meaning season 3 is hitting our screens five whole months ahead of schedule! Not that I'm complaining. Each of the 10 episodes will air on Wednesdays on The CW and the app.

How many episodes are there in Sullivan's Crossing season 3?

Michael Tompkins/Fremantle

There are 10 episodes in Sullivan's Crossing season 3. Check back here for the full list of titles!

  • Season 3, Episode 1 "New Beginnings" airs May 7
  • Season 3, Episode 2 airs May 14
  • Season 3, Episode 3 airs May 21
  • Season 3, Episode 4 airs May 28
  • Season 3, Episode 5 airs June 4
  • Season 3, Episode 6 airs June 11
  • Season 3, Episode 7 airs June 18
  • Season 3, Episode 8 airs June 25
  • Season 3, Episode 9 airs July 2
  • Season 3, Episode 10 airs July 9

Um, did the 'Sullivan's Crossing' season 3 first look just spoil the premiere?

CTV/Bell Media

In our first look at the new season, we see Chad Michael Murray's Cal and Morgan Kohan's Maggie getting cozy. Maggie wears a super cute white tee and jeans combo, while Cal's in a henley and jeans, but in a surprising turn of events, fans are way more concerned with who's on the second slide than with their favorite couple.

Because after Sully's fate was left up in the air at the end of the Sullivan's Crossing season 2 finale, seeing him in the first look has fans hoping he'll pull through.

"So that 2nd pic... does that mean Sully didn't die in the fire ????" one Instagram user asks, while another jokes, "that’s what I was thinking! Like way to ruin the cliffhanger!"

Fremantle/CW

ICYMI, Sullivan's Crossing season 2 ended with the diner catching on fire...and Sully getting trapped inside. But thankfully the story doesn't end there.

“We are so excited to return to Sullivan’s Crossing next year for a third season,” Brad Schwartz, CW's President, tells Deadline. “Roma, this talented cast, and the entire creative team have built an incredible world full of emotionally charged storytelling that has resonated with viewers over the last two years. And tonight’s season finale includes a can’t-miss cliffhanger that will leave fans clamoring for more.”

Ahead of season 2, Morgan Kohan told Brit + Co that "Season 2 just feels really elevated from season 1," and that the next installment offers "a real good insight into so many more of the characters that we already love and kind of get to know a lot more about them, and how and why they operate." And I can only imagine season 3 will provide even more nuance and detail to those relationships. I can't wait!

Where is Sullivan's Crossing filmed?

Summer rom-coms are so back! A24 confirmed on March 4 that Celine Song's Materialists, starring Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans, and Pedro Pascal, is coming to theaters this June and I cannot contain my excitement. The new movie follows a matchmaker (Dakota) who finds herself torn between two romantic prospects. If that's too dramatic for you, girl, I'd be happy to take your place.

Here's the latest update on Materialists starring Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans, and Pedro Pascal.

Watch the 'Materialists' trailer now.

I watched the Materialists trailer four times before writing this because I just couldn't stop soaking it in — and I didn't want to miss a single detail. Of course, we get the story of Lucy (Dakota Johnson) a matchmaker, who finds herself torn between the perfect man (Pedro Pascal) and her ex (Chris Evans), who's still dreaming of "wrinkles and children that look like you," a line that will be playing in my head on REPEAT because OH MY GOSH.

But just like director Celine Song's acclaimed Past Lives, every single detail of the movie translates the emotion in the story. Dakota Johnson has an effervescent grace and masters the screen every time we see her, while Pedro and Chris don't even have to open their mouths to break my heart; their eyes say it all. The color grade and film quality are soft and romantic, which totally matches the delicate situation this trio finds themselves in; both men fall for Lucy and it looks like our matchmaker has to figure out how to avoid breaking anyone's heart — including her own. "Delicate" by Taylor Swift, anyone?

But overall, the movie teases that sometimes, there are no bad decisions, just really hard ones. And if I got all that from the Materialists trailer, I can't wait to see the full movie...even if it's going to be totally devastating. And I have a feeling I'm going to be seeing it more than once.

Is Materialists out yet?

Materialists will premiere in theaters June 13, 2025. After Past Lives became THE summer movie in 2023 (and absolutely wrecked my roommates), I know Materialists is going to be the perfect June watch.

What is the plot of Materialists?

The movie follows Dakota Johnson's character, a matchmaker in New York City who falls for the perfect man, but can't seem to let go of her ex. Given the fact the first poster for the movie includes "save the date" and looks like a wedding cake, I'm wondering if we'll see all three characters cross paths at a wedding...

Who's in the Materialists cast?

The Materialists cast has some incredible names leading the movie, and when I asked Dakota Johnson about working with Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans, she teased how much she enjoyed working with them. "They're both big idiots and I love them," she told Brit + Co exclusively at her Daddio premiere. Here's a breakdown of their roles:

  • Dakota Johnson as Lucy: a perpetually single matchmaker who finds herself torn between the perfect man and her ex.
  • Chris Evans as John: Lucy's ex who hasn't been able to let her go.
  • Pedro Pascal as Randy: a handsome stranger who changes Lucy's life forever.

Where was Materialists filmed?

Materialists was announced in February of 2024, and filming began around New York City by April. Filming wrapped in June.

I love spring and summer shoots because the movie's going to have so much life and energy in every single shot. Plus Dakota's sundresses are totally giving Brooklyn gal — and I'm dreaming of prancing around the city in a dress as soon as the weather warms up!

Are you as excited for Materialists as I am? Let us know your favorite rom-coms in the comments and check out the latest news on Madelyn Cline's new romance movie for more!

The best romance books know how to transport us to worlds where unexpected love and second chances exist. They also find a way to make "cheesy" meet-cutes and dialogue feel like the adult version of our favorite Disney stories. Think Cinderella meets Bridget Jones' Diary.

We already know it's a given that BookTok creators are always looking for their next fix in this genre, so we've got 15 new reads they'll be ready to devour. The plus side of this is that you get first dibs on the picks you think your bookshelf's eager to make space for!

Page of Cups:

Okay, first up in our cosmic download is the dreamy Page of Cups! This card is all about tapping into your inner confidence and those sweet, sweet feelings. Think of it as your permission slip to chase what your heart desires – as long as you're not stepping on anyone's toes (including your own!), and honestly, who cares what anyone else thinks? The adorable fish in the cup? That's the universe dropping unexpected opportunities right in your lap when you're just being your authentic self and following your joy. Yes, effort and intention are still part of the equation, but aligning with what lights you up can seriously unlock some magical joy, abundance, freedom, and peace vibes. This week, let's make it a mission to pump up that passion and confidence within ourselves so we're living a life that truly feels like us.

The Moon:

The next card is the mystical Moon! This one's all about those shifting phases, telling us that the change we've been craving? It's practically here this week! But heads up, babes, it's gonna require a healthy dose of self-trust and building up that inner confidence to actually create and welcome it. The Moon also shines a light on that little flutter of fear that can pop up with the unknown – totally normal! But the cosmos is reminding us that change is already happening all around, just like the moon's cycles and the Earth's seasons. To really ride this wave, we gotta get cozy with being uncomfortable. Remember that power mantra: "nothing changes if nothing changes"? It's your reminder that you've got the power to shape your own path, and that means embracing the new. The reading also nudges us to get super clear on who we are and what we truly want, because floating around without direction? Not the vibe. Implementing changes, whether they're big leaps or tiny tweaks, that align with our most confident and brave selves – guided by those amazing feelings, that spark of excitement, pure joy, and that inner soul voice? That's the secret sauce for unlocking some serious ease.

The Hanged Man:

Okay, last but definitely not least in our reading is the intriguing Hanged Man! Now, this card is all about that "in-between" space – you know, that transitional period where you might feel a little paused or even stuck, even though things are moving behind the scenes. But don't fret, darling! This card is actually encouraging you to embrace that pause, like a cosmic red light giving you a chance to check your internal GPS before hitting the gas again. Think of it as a moment for contentment, practicing patience, and even a chance to tweak your direction if needed. The Hanged Man is your gentle reminder that big changes take time, so don't stress if you're not seeing instant results. This phase is all about trusting the universe's timing and understanding that you're in a transition, moving from point A to point B. So, even if it feels a little slow, know that momentum is building! Use this time to your advantage – optimize, check in with your soul self, and follow those little breadcrumbs of joy, excitement, and curiosity. You're exactly where you need to be right now!

Bonus Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Wrap ​from Half Baked Harvest!

Half Baked Harvest

As a bonus, we're throwing in one of our favorite easy and healthy wrap recipes that pushed all the right buttons on flavor. You'll combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, herbs, lettuce, and a little cheddar cheese, fold them up in wraps, then pan-fry until warm and crispy!

These easy wraps, made by Half Baked Harvest, come together in mere minutes. They're crunchy on the outside, cheesy on the inside. Serve with the deliciously creamy jalapeño lime ranch and additional buffalo sauce! These healthy wraps are great for both lunch and dinner, but equally fun for a game night, too!

First things first: start with the buffalo chicken. Shred up a couple of chicken breasts and toss them with homemade buffalo sauce, Greek yogurt (for creaminess), and fresh herbs. Most buffalo chicken fillings are made with cream cheese, but you can swap in yogurt for a healthier choice.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cooked shredded chicken
  • 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 1/3 cup buffalo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 4 large (burrito size) whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded romaine lettuce
  • 1-2 jalapeños or poblano peppers, chopped
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • Olive oil, for cooking

Ingredients for jalapeño ranch:

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 cup pickled jalapeños chopped + 2 tablespoons brine
  • Juice from 1 lime
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

To assemble:

Make a cut down the center of your tortillas, then add the chicken to one corner, and the greens to another corner, and finally the cheese to another. Fold it all up, then pan-fry. So you've got...

  • One-quarter of buffalo chicken
  • Another quarter wrap of greens n' things
  • A quarter full of ranch
  • And finally a quarter full of cheese
  • Fold it all up into one triangle

Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, combine the chicken, yogurt, buffalo sauce, chives, parsley, and dill.
  2. To make the ranch. Combine all ingredients in a bowl.
  3. To assemble, cut down from the center of the tortilla to the edge. Spread the chicken in the bottom left corner, then add a handful of the lettuce, jalapeño/poblano pepper, and green onions on the top left corner. Spread the ranch on the top right corner, and the cheese on the bottom right corner. Fold the buffalo chicken over the lettuce. Then, working clock-wise, folding that quarter over the ranch. And finally, fold that quarter over the cheese.
  4. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet, add 1 wrap and cook 2-3 minutes per side until crisp and golden brown. Serve warm with extra buffalo sauce, ranch, and lettuce.
